★★★★★ The Bob’s Burgers Movie
Hilarious, if overlong, there's plenty for fans to savor, while the rest of us are safe checking in to see what all the fuss is about.

★★★★★ Top Gun: Maverick
The rare sequel that bests the original, but still knows it has to rely on it to reach the heights it aims for.

★★★★½ Chip ‘n Dale: Rescue Rangers
Hilarious, satirical, meta, and full of heart, Chip 'n Dale are back and better than ever!

★★★★★ Men
Those willing to stick through the end will find themselves bearing witness to the likes they've never imagined.

★★★★½ Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness
Epic, spooky, fast, and kooky, 'MoM' is better than the first 'Doctor Strange' and feels like a comic book brought to life.

★★★★★ The Bad Guys
Takes itself more seriously than most family fare, but still knows how to show you a good time.

★★★★½ The Northman
Brutal, bloody, and epic. Nuff said.

★★★★★ Everything Everywhere All at Once
Come for the kung fu and hot dog fingers, stay for the googly-eyed character transcendence. This thing, err, rocks!

★★½★★ Morbius
Far from the worst Marvel movie, but we can at least be glad it doesn't flat out suck.

★★★★★ You Won’t Be Alone
More brains than guts, another fantastic entry to the "elevated horror" subgenre.

★★★★★ The Lost City
A rom-com for everyone to enjoy. It may be an updated 'Romancing the Stone,' but the comedic chemistry sizzles more than enough to get the job done.

★★★★★ X
Armed with a game cast, clever script, plenty of jump scares, and buckets of gore, 'X' marks the spot for the year’s scariest film so far.

PG
★★★★½ Turning Red
It may be streaming exclusively on Disney+, but even Pixar at home is just as good as Pixar in theaters!

PG-13
★★★★½ The Batman
It's called 'The Batman' for a reason, and oh what wonderful reasons those are.

PG-13
★★★★★ Uncharted
A fun mix of 'Indiana Jones' and 'Da Vinci Code' with a splash of 'Goonies.' See it in IMAX if you can and stay for the credits.

★★★★★ Dog
A charming little tale that isn't quite a buddy road trip movie, but also never gets dark enough to kill the dog to shed some tears.

★★★★★ Death on the Nile
Plain and simple: 'Death' > 'Murder'

★★★½★ Marry Me
Never tries to reinvent the genre, but fun enough that anyone getting dragged to it should still be entertained.

★★★★★ The King’s Man
Doesn't quite live up to the original, but it's still a smashing good time for fans of the franchise.

★★★★★ Nightmare Alley
Pulpy noir as only Del Toro could deliver.

PG-13
★★★★★ Spider-Man: No Way Home
Unabashedly Spidey in all the right ways, the best of the Holland entries, and the year's best film to boot.

★★★★½ King Richard
A feel-good and crowd-pleasing win with a fantastic ensemble.

★★★½★ Ghostbusters: Afterlife
Keeps the jokes bustin, but never seems able to make up its mind on whether it's homage, remake, reboot, or sequel, and settles on all of the above.

★★★½★ Home Sweet Home Alone
Well deck my halls, it made me laugh!
